ticklemewines.com website review

25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.7 MB).

2 images could be 674 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.3 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Google Fonts and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 4.4 MB and 243 ms of main-thread time.

14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.

Amazon Web Services costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 3.2 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

blockifyapp.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 660 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

About 71 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 127 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 15.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 15.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The layout shifts by 0.124 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Your homepage downloads 5.6 MB in 215 requests on a phone: images 4.1 MB (36), other files 755 KiB (90) and scripts 362 KiB (43). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

2 images weigh 1.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

7 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example q4_3.png at 894 px wide, shown at 32 px. Resized copies would save about 1.7 MB.

16 images (2.1 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

18 images further down the page (1.6 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.58 g of CO₂e: 190.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 15 characters: “Tickle Me Wines”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 34 pages on ticklemewines.com and 5 external pages.

There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

/customer_authentication/redirect and /pages/wine-discovery-quiz have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

/collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/about and /pages/wine-discovery-quiz have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

/pages/wine-discovery-quiz has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

/collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/about and /pages/wine-discovery-quiz took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

We fetched 9 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

The homepage carries about 595 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
